Safeguarding Personal Data using Rights Management in Distributed Applications

Privacy includes the right to determine the use of personal information after it has been released. Some compliance solutions have been proposed already. However, they are usually monolithic systems operating only within one database system or requiring a customized infrastructure. This paper explores the possibility to use an off-the-shelf document rights management platform to enable enforcem...

Safeguarding The Public

In his foreword to this volume, Dr. Paul Beeson points out that "the disease certainly justifies prodigious study, as it may well be the model which will provide important clues to links between immune phenomena, virus infections and neoplastic diseases." In this book, thirteen distinguished contributors have provided a comprehensive review of both clinical and experimental observations as well...

Safeguarding cryptographic keys

Certain cryptographic keys, such as a number which makes it possible to compute the secret decoding exponent in an RSA public key cryptosystem,1,5 or the system master key and certain other keys in a DES cryptosystem,3 are so important that they present a dilemma. If too many copies are distributed one might go astray. If too few copies are made they might all be destroyed. A typical cryptosyst...

Pseudorandom Bit Generators That Fool Modular Sums

We consider the following problem: for given n,M , produce a sequence X1, X2, . . . , Xn of bits that fools every linear test modulo M . We present two constructions of generators for such sequences. For every constant prime power M , the first construction has seed length OM (log(n/2)), which is optimal up to the hidden constant. (A similar construction was independently discovered by Meka and...
